RM1.25
Stock retraced 17% from recent high before consolidating in a trading range of RM1.10 – 1.03. Yesterday, provides the first sign of breaking out from this range with a close above RM1.10, triggering a buy signal. For FY7/13, Silkhdg derived 80% of its revenue and >100% of its PBT from the oil & gas sector. Its legacy business being the operator & concessionaire of the SILK Highway which has been loss-making since its inception and Co announced in June’14 that it has entered into a conditional sale agreement to sell SILK for RM395m for cash ( versus audited nest assets of SILK as at 31/7/13 of RM27.9m). With the divestment of the loss-making wholly-owned subsidiary, Silkhdg’s bottomline is expected to improve significantly from its strong operating leverage in its offshore vessels fleet expansion programme. Silkhdg’s fleet size was increased from 12 OSVs in 2012 to 17 OSVs currently and 19 OSVs by end 2014. All its existing OSVs are on long-term charter. In addition, Silkhdg is enjoying vastly improved chartering rates compared to last year. Buy

PANTECH (5125)  
20/8/2014
RM1.06
ACCUMULATE
RM1.25
Stock retraced about 8% from recent high of RM1.15 with macd on the verge of cutting upwards. Pantech is a one-stop provider of pipes, fittings and flow control solutions which targets the higher-margin O&G sector. Pantech is expected to have positive newsflows over the next few months as it is a likely beneficiary of the USD27b Refinery And Petrochemical Integrated Development (RAPID). Despite its given potential, the stock is still undervalued compared to its peers & the broader market. It trades at PER of 11.66x (FY2/15) & 9.38x (FY2/16) versus its other small & mid-cap peers average PER of 15x & 12x. Pantech also provides an above-market dividend yield of 4.2% & 4.8% for the next 2 financial years. Its stainless steel plant has shifted production from stainless steel pipes to fittings which have higher margins. It has managed to penetrate more export markets due to UK-based Nautic Steel products which carried higher margins and are approved by many of the oil majors. It is also raising its production capacity at its carbon steel plant (currently running at full capacity) by 13.5% this year. Last year, Pantech acquired a second plot of land near Nautic’s existing factory and invested in new equipment to expand product range. Utilisation stands at 75% following the capacity increase which is supportive of growth over the next 2 years. Accumulate
